Police witness. - It is now an established law that police officials are as good witnesses as the other independent witnesses are. The only precaution to be take regarding the evidence of police officials is that their evidence is to be carefully scrutinized. If there is nothing on the record which would make the evidence of the police officials in any way unreliable, they cannot be disbelieved merely because they belong to the police department.
